The Clarendon Broncos had no problem sliding by Lockney at home last Tuesday night. They were able to work both ends of the court and earned a 74-46 win.
The Broncos jumped on the Longhorns early taking a 22-point lead into the break. Lockney was unable to stop the Broncos as they executed their offense almost perfectly. Clarendon was dominant on the defensive end and stopped Lockney from finding a rhythm.
“We did a good job of taking care of the basketball,” coach Brandt Lockhart said. “I was pleased with our defensive effort.”
The big five accounted for 64 of the Broncos’ total score. Keandre Cortez led the scoring effort with 17 and Chance Lockhart put in 16. Colt Wood had 11 and Marshal Johnson and Jared Jeffers each had 10. Bryce Grahn and Damarjae Cortez each had four and Bear Smith added two to finish out the scoring.
The Broncos’ rebounding was good as well with Grahn grabbing 10 and Smith getting nine. Grahn led with seven assists and Wood and D. Cortez each helped with five. Grahn also led in steals with six and D. Cortez and Smith each had two.
The Broncos will participate in the Miami Tournament December 1-3 and play Vega at home on Tuesday, December 6, beginning at 8:00 p.m.
